Question

On the bus, on the subway, every head is lowered to a cell phone, iPad, or other digital device. But does this mean more and more people are getting into reading the digital way?
According to the National Reading Survey, before the 17^th World Reading Day on April 23, only 1.2 percent of Chinese people said they read a lot. But 38.6 percent said they read on digital devices like cell phone and e-books. This is a 17.7 percent increase from 2010.
Many experts are talking about a trend toward fragmented reading ––reading many short messages or items on a digital device like a cell phone instead of one long text in a book.
Zhao jianmin, a professor at Shanghai University, said fragmented reading was part of modern life. “The fast pace of life leaves many people no time to sit and read a whole book,” he said. “So making use of fragmented time to read is sure to be a trend”
Fragmented reading has its advantages. People can enjoy large amounts of information, knowledge and entertainment in a short time. Digital reading is faster than traditional deep reading.
However, some experts fear the trend of digital reading will lead people to read in a simple way. Xu Guosheng, at a Chinese Academy of Press and Publication, says fragmented reading makes it harder for people to think more about what they read. He also warned fragmented reading could make people lazy about remembering facts because they know they can always just search for answers online.
“Fragmented reading is sometimes good, but don’t let it take all your time,” suggested Tian Zhilng, an editor. He said it was important to read quality books in a deeper way, and we should read for knowledge, for practical use and for pleasure. He suggested people choose easy books first, then move onto more difficult ones.

解析試題分析：短文大意：本文主要介紹了一種新的閱讀趨勢。上海大學的教授趙建民說支離破碎的閱讀是現代生活的一部分。“快節奏的生活使很多人沒有時間坐下來讀一本書，”他說。“所以利用零碎時間閱讀肯定是一個趨勢”。支離破碎的閱讀也有它的好處。人們可以享受大量的信息，在很短的時間，知識和娛樂。數字閱讀比傳統的深閱讀速度。然而，一些專家擔心，數字閱讀的趨勢將導致人們簡單的閱讀方式。中國科學院出版社的徐國盛說支離破碎的閱讀使人們很難想更多地了解他們所讀的。
